Women Insurance Policy

Chapter: 1 Introduction
There are customized insurance policies for women, whether they are working, working from or at home or are housewives. Over the ages, traditionally, women have been home makers in India. The scenario has changed drastically in recent times. The Indian woman's transition from home maker to bread winner has been phenomenal. Moreover, they have taken a march over their male counterparts by juggling with style multidimensional roles - professional, home-maker, mother, and financial planner... With this in mind, women's life insurance came up. In this country, in the early years of the insurance industry, the trend was to insure only male lives. The logic was that the female of the species was home-bound anyway, wasn't exposed to any risk, and consequently didn't need any sort of insurance. The bread winner was the male and it was against his lost income that cover was required. A major additional disincentive was the extra risk to female lives that was an inevitable part of the childbirth process. All that has changed with women rivaling men at the workplace (and frequently doing a better job than them). In addition, better education for the female child, increased economic contribution by women, better medical facilities for safer childbirth and post-natal care have all contributed to more and more insurance products that are women-specific.

2.4 Women need term life insurance some time more that mens
Term life insurance serves beneficiaries in countless ways. It protects families in the event the breadwinner dies. It used to fund college education expenses, to pay off mortgages, to pay for the burial of the deceased, to pay probate and attorney's fees. It provides sufficient income so that a family can maintain their same standard of living. Term life does all this but the big question is why most of it bought by men is?
Page 7
Women need life insurance too. In today's world women are making as much a contribution to the family expenses as men. In fact in many a case their contribution is significantly more. Will the above financial responsibilities still have to be met if the wife dies or will they go away with her? When a woman's income is no longer there will the surviving husbands income be sufficient to maintain the family on the same level or will they have to change their lifestyle somewhat? What about that emergency fund that both husband and wife thought necessary...will it still be there? What about the myriad of things the wife takes care of in the home even though she has a job outside of the home? The value of her contribution is beyond comprehension. What about a full time home maker...can her value be measured? It used to be that a man decided on his life insurance to protect his family and he would add a small policy on the wife to his portfolio. That was such a thoughtless and misguided approach. The women have now taken over the responsibility of researching and purchasing their own life insurance policies and...In some cases the portfolio of the entire family. Their choice of policy in many a case is term life insurance. Women have become more aware that upon their death it may be difficult for the husband by himself to maintain the same standard of living for the family. They want to be assured that the children can live in the same house and go to the same school. They want to make certain that the fund for college is secure and available when the children are ready for higher education. A 20 year term insurance policy is a very popular
Page 8
choice to cover these needs. In some cases a 25 year or a 30 year term insurance policy is used. In many a case women are heads of households. The life of a single parent can be a very difficult one. All the responsibilities of the family fall upon her shoulders. Single parents buy term life insurance because they do not want to leave their children destitute when they die. Even if a goodhearted relative will take care of the children it will cost money. Life insurance can certainly provide this money either in a lump sum or in income form. People at times live under a misinformed illusion that single women without children need no life insurance. Nothing could be further from the truth. Single women are buying their own homes today and in some cases may even have elderly parents live with them. The need for life insurance is still there. You will buy insurance because you want a loved one to have a house free and clear when you die. A good decreasing term policy could take care of that. If elderly parents live with you it may be necessary to provide some sort of income for them. Of course there are the inevitable costs of dying...the funeral costs, attorneys fees and probate fees. What about future needs for life insurance? Is it not better to buy the policy while you are young and the premiums are very low than wait until later and pay a much higher premium...if you can qualify for it. Women do need term life insurance because of their immeasurable human life value. In many a case they need more than men.

Chapter: 3 Categories of insurance policies

There are various types of insurance policies. Some of them concentrate on human life and health while some focus of the personal belongings of a person. The terms and conditions of insurance plans are different from each other. Some of the common insurance policies and their details are mentioned below: 1. Life insurance policy details: Life insurance covers the life of the policyholder. There are two types of life insurance plans:
2. Term life insurance policy: If the life insurance cover provides coverage for a certain period of time, then it is called term insurance. There are three factors to consider before taking up a term life insurance: monthly premium, duration of the cover, and face amount.
3. Permanent life insurance policy: This policy covers the policyholder unless he fails to pay off the monthly insurance. There are four types of permanent live cover, such as universal, whole life, endowment, and limited pay.
4. Health insurance policy details: Health insurance covers a person for any accident or medical condition. If the person is insured under a health insurance, the insurance company pays his medical chares including hospitalization and specialist fees. Health
insurance can be for individual as well as family. An individual

health insurance policy cover only one person while a family plan cover the entire family under one cover.
3.1 Life insurance for women
In life insurance terms, women are broadly divided into three categories: Working women Women with income by way of interest, dividend, rent, etc., that are taxable Housewives/home-makers who (in purely technical terms) do not have an income The first two categories are no different from their male counterparts i.e. they are treated on par with them for insurance purposes. A housewife, on the other hand, has her insurability tied to adequate life insurance cover for her husband as well as his income. For instance, a housewife's life insurance cover cannot exceed her husband's. Apart from this caveat, all basic covers such as life, personal accident, mediclaim, critical illness etc. form a part of women's life insurance policies too. There are also some special covers afforded in women's life insurance policies that include: Cover for certain female critical illnesses Occurrence of certain congenital disabilities in new-borns
Cradle care - covers the newly born child's defects, deformity, malformation, congenital abnormality of any kind at time of delivery Now move towards the exclusions to the above-mentioned special covers: Post delivery complications Still-born child Death of the mother during childbirth Miscarriage, infanticide Any defect that is not congenital Malfunctioning of any organ (as opposed to malformation) Any defect, which manifests itself after 200 days of the delivery
Most of these policies are benefit-only policies i.e., they come to effect on the specified event happening. Another important point - most pre-natal and birth-related policies have to be taken not later than the 20th week of pregnancy. Womankind carries the future of the race, literally. They can never be thanked enough for the commitment, pain, and dedication they bring to their various avatars as home-maker, mother, wife, and professional. Having said that, these insurance policies can go a fair bit in reducing the monetary impact of the loss of the woman in a home
3.2 Term Life Insurance for Women In today's world, both men and women may contribute substantially to the family's income. While it has become common practice for men to obtain life insurance to financially secure their dependents in the case of an untimely death, many women have yet to make the purchase of life insurance for themselves. Why Should Women Purchase Insurance? 1. Women can contribute an essential part of the family income, which would disappear in case of death, resulting in decreased family income.
Page 12
2. Single mothers may have financially dependent children. Insurance could help provide financial security and debt coverage in the case of untimely death. 3. In-home caregivers (of children or elderly parents) contribute economically to the family. Life insurance coverage may be necessary to help ensure that children continue to receive quality childcare and that elderly parents continue to receive competent care in the case of an untimely death of this care-giver. Term life insurance for women offers a way for women to help protect their loved ones. We can give you the information you need and find affordable life insurance that fits your needs. Our licensed life insurance agents listen to you, and then recommend appropriate life insurance coverage options for you, whatever it is. Wherever life's journey takes you, we'll be there to help.
3.3 Health Insurance for Women
Women are equally vulnerable to illness and accidents as men. They have to take care of their families, children, and career simultaneously. Health insurance is a basic need for today's women. Compared to earlier days, when they are covered under their husband's policy, now they can have their own insurance policy.
Page 13
Fee-for-service health insurance: The fee-for-service health insurance for women is feasible option for those women, who consult their doctor very frequently. Every time they visit a doctor, the insurance company pays off the fees, followed by an official claim. However, the policyholder needs to pay the deductible amount before any payments from the insurance company's end. Managed care health insurance: Managed care health insurance for women gives the policyholder the opportunity to access a particular set of hospitals, doctors, and other medical professionals. There are three kinds of managed care health insurance: Health Maintenance Organizations (HMOs): These organizations offer health benefits in exchange of monthly premium. These fees have to be paid every month, no matter if you do not use the services. Preferred Provider Organizations (PPOs): These organizations offer more services, compared to the Health Maintenance Organizations.
Affordable Women Health Insurance Plan

Women are paying more for health insurance than men even though the coverage is identical. Not only do women have to be concerned that their average pay is only 77% of their male counterparts, they also have to be concerned about why the difference in health insurance costs is not so small. The size and prevalence of these
Page 14
disparities are extremely surprise because women are paying hundreds times more than men a year, as much as 49% more. The reason state legislation allows insurance companies to set different rates for men and women are a practice known as gender rating. Gender rating is illegal in 10 states and restricted in 2. The other remaining states allow gender rating to occur because there is no federal guideline governing specific amounts health insurance companies can charge in the individual market. The basis for this gender rating is that women are more expensive to care for than men. Women are more likely to visit their doctors for their annual screenings and checkups and when they are feeling ill than men and are more likely to suffer from certain chronic diseases. Some other factors that force health insurance companies to charge women more than men is maternity care and increased incidence of chronic conditions among women. Some women even hold off on having children because their insurance policies do not cover maternity care. Representative Xavier Becerra, Democrat of California, said that if men could have kids, such disparities would probably not exist, which confirms some of the opinions held with disparage between female and male health insurance costs. Healthcare is a top concern for women business owners. You want to make sure that you have affordable health care coverage and benefits. With todays economy and the rising cost of health insurance, it is hard to find affordable health insurance plans, especially for women. Health policies in India are very complex, and you need to research and understand them well before investing in one. It would be a good idea to visit the sites of the various health insurance companies online to understand what they offer. You could take this one step further by meeting up with the agents of the various insurance companies, who would then advise you on what health policy is available with them and how that can be matched to your requirements.
Below is a list of some of the important points to consider before taking the insurance Hospitals and physicians that are in the network of the plan you choose Co-insurance Doctor visit co-pays Annual deductible Monthly premiums Prescription benefits and co-pays Maximum Coverage Out of pocket annual maximum Health Savings Account Qualified Plans The gap between men and womens insurance rates may not decrease as rapidly as wed like but there are some steps we, as women can take to make a more affordable health insurance plan: Increase your deductible: The higher the deductible, the lower the monthly premium. If you are a healthy woman and only go to the doctor for preventative care, having a high deductible plan can save you a lot of money. Invest in a Health Savings Account (HSA). An HSA combines high deductible health insurance plans with a tax-favored savings account. Money in the savings account helps pay the deductible and money left in the account earns interest and rolls over from year to year.
Page 16
Save money on prescription drugs by asking your pharmacist for the generic alternative. Generic prescription drugs are a lot cheaper and contain the same active ingredients as the original formulation. Dont make unnecessary trips to the emergency room as that is charted on your Medical records, which is used when your policy is being underwritten. Do your regular physical checkups. If you smoke, this is definitely rated higher when policies are underwritten. If you say you dont smoke and have smoke related problems, you will be ineligible. Quit smoking as soon as possible. There are free resources online that can help with cessation. If you are considering having a child, make sure you have insurance coverage for at least a year or two BEFORE you actually have children. By doing so you can make sure you are covered for pregnancy. Always, be sure to review all policies and compare plans. Last but not least, stay healthy. By eating healthier and exercising, you reduce the risk of developing diseases and becoming ill. By staying healthy you can cut health care costs and save money.
Important issues for Women with consideration of Health Insurance

Women-Specific Issues Maternity and Birth Control are two very important issues to women when choosing a health insurance plan. You should make sure, when choosing a plan, that the plan offers maternity care and prescription drug coverage.
Maternity Coverage It is advised that every woman chooses a health insurance plan that includes maternity coverage. A plans cost does increase when maternity coverage is added but the costs in the long run are minimal. Without maternity coverage, if you were to become pregnant, you would not be able to add maternity coverage or switch plans. Pregnancy is considered a pre-existing condition and you would become uninsurable. Birth Control Birth control of any kind, i.e. oral contraceptive pills, the birth control patch, or the Nuvaring is usually available as a prescription drug with co-pay. Prescription drugs come in a wide range of prices and choosing a health insurance plan that divides prescription drugs into tiers is very affordable. The tiered option makes it easier for you and your doctor to choose the lower-cost option for the prescription drug, such as birth control, you may need Health Savings Account (HSA) Health Savings Accounts, or HSAs, are a combination of a high deductible health insurance plan and a tax-favored savings plan that allows a tax deduction for the individual it is owned by. HSAs were formed to empower individuals to have greater control over their health care decisions. They are available for individuals who are enrolled in a high deductible health plan, are not enrolled in Medicare, are not covered by another health plan and are not claimed as dependents on someone elses federal tax return. HSAs are perfect for women who rarely go to the doctor except for annual exams and screenings. ADVANTAGES Give you the flexibility to pay on a pretax basis for qualified medical expenses not available in some traditional health plans.
Qualified medical expenses can include dental, orthodontics, visions, and non-prescription medications. Deposits are not tied to expenses in a particular year and can be rolled over for future expenses. In catastrophic situations, the maximum out-of-pocket expense liability can be less than that of a traditional health plan. Premiums are generally lower than traditional health insurance plans. When you file for taxes each year, any deposits made during that year into your HSA will be tax-deductible. You can keep an HSA even if you change jobs or insurance companies. DISADVANTAGES HSAs have been rejected by some because of opinions that they only benefit healthy, younger people. Critics believe that low-income individuals and family do not earn enough to benefit from the tax-breaks offered by HSAs. There are limits to the amount that can be contributed to your HSA. If you contribute in excess of the maximum contribution amount, the excess amount is not tax-deductible. HEALTH INSURANCE CLAIM PROCEDURE
Page 19
Health insurance claim procedure is very specific, depending upon the company's rules and regulations. It is differs from one company to another. Nowadays, due to increasing competition, every company in health insurance sector tries to inculcate simple health insurance claim procedure, as it is the demand of customer. Everyone today wants to opt for the policy with easy and speedy claim procedure.. You can claim the money by filling the health insurance claim form, which can be collected either from company's office, from agents or online.

Health insurance during pregnancy: There are health insurance plans for pregnant women. A woman can buy a health insurance plan before or after conceiving.

Parameters to Determine the Insurance Policy

Insurance cover the life as well as all the valuables of one's life. It not only insures our lives but also buys mental peace for us. There are a number of insurance companies and banks, which offer good insurance policy. However, all plans may not be suitable for everyone. How can you choose the best policy for you? What are the parameters to judge which insurance plan is good and what is not good for you. There are millions of insurance companies, which offer you different insurance plans. However, you need to decide which plan would be good for you. Given below are some parameters to determine the best insurance Policy for you. Premium rate: Before going for any insurance plan, you have to check the insurance quote. Sometimes, it is noticed that short term insurance policies cost less but their premiums are higher. In that case, the policyholder should concentrate on the monthly premium rather than the insurance quote. Ask your insurance agent about your monthly premium. If it is higher than your ability, you should understand that this insurance policy would not suit you. On the contrary, in some cases, premium payment annually is more profitable than the monthly or quarterly premium. If the amount of annual premium attracts you, you should not go for monthly or quarterly premium. Insurance cover: As mentioned earlier, there are high end insurance policies, which cover all possible dangers in your life, but you may not avail all these
services during the term of your insurance. For example, single trip travel insurance is good for those, who travel one or two times in a year while multi trip travel insurance cover more than three tours in a year. If you are not a frequent traveler, you should go for single trip travel insurance. An optimum insurance policy is what covers all the articles; you need to cover, and not a single extra thing. Short term or long term: There are two types of insurance plans, short term and long term. Short term insurance plans can cover you for a short span from three months to six months while long term insurance policy covers you for more than one year. Short term insurance policies are comparatively costeffective compared to the other option. However, they cover you for a certain time. If you need a few days cover and do not want to spend much, you should go for short term insurance cover. Income tax benefits: Many people take extra insurance cover because they want some tax benefits. Monthly insurance premium can be included in your taxable amount. If you want such an insurance plan, study the market and choose the right one. There are many insurance policies, which can save your taxes. Discounts: Many insurance companies give lucrative discounts on their plans. Some provide the discounts through incentives while some cater for children education fund. You should check what kind of incentive your insurance provider is offering you. If it attracts you, you should know that it is a good insurance plan for you.

Guidelines for Choosing an Insurance Policy

Choosing the right insurance policy for oneself has become crucial in the times of turbulent financial markets and various other unexpected events. It not only determines the concern that we get when our physical wellbeing takes a wrong turn, but is also very helpful for designing a well-structured fiscal plan. An insurance cover offers many advantages ranging from monetary assistance at the time of unanticipated demise of a major income earner of the family to offering sound monetary future to the family. There are many factors to probe into when an investor chose an insurance company. The consumers as well as the investors should only focus on the insurer's financial strength and capability to meet ongoing responsibilities to its policyholders. The fundamentals of the insurance company should be strong and should not indicate a poor investment opportunity as this might also deter growth.
Page 49
Chapter: 9 TIPS FOR CHOOSING AN INSURANCE POLICY While selecting the right insurance cover, one should always consider her present earnings and the estimated competence to forfeit the insurance premiums at the allotted dates besides the age factor, future fiscal strategies, medical condition, etc. Other factors which needs to be taken into consideration while selecting the right insurance policy are the policy's cost-benefit ratio and guaranteeing that the insurance envelops all your family members along with the common health issues. The cost benefit ratio of the Insurance policy relies on many factors such as what is insured and what are the benefits that come along with it. Hence while purchasing the policy one needs to keep a strict vigilance on the price of the policy and guaranteeing that the policy rationalizes the benefits included under it. Besides keeping a close eye on the advantages, the policyholder should also ensure that the promises made by various insurance firms are adhered by

Chapter: 10 Conclusion
Women have moved on from being just homemakers to breadwinners, often playing multi-dimensional roles -- professional, homemaker, mother and even financial planner. Needless to say, insurance is as much a necessity for them as it is for men. For a good long time, insurance companies offered covers only for men. A few did offer products for women, but with restrictive conditions and higher premiums. Things started changing with the formation of the Life Insurance Corporation of India. But today, all women -- married, unmarried, widowed, dependent and even handicapped -- can be insured and those who work and earn an income are treated at par with men .With better education levels, increased awareness about the status and contribution of women, better medical facilities for safer childbirth and larger number of women taking up employment or business, medical insurance was introduced for women, followed by several other exclusive plans. Insurance companies take into account a womans income levels, education standard and socio-economic background to grant covers .The perspective of insurance has also undergone a sea change. Earlier, it was viewed only as compensation received on the death of a key earning member. But today, insurance has emerged as a tool that provides support in ones old age and is also a preferred investment option, over and above providing protection to ones kin in the even of his/her death . Investing a little time and money on a regular basis in an insurance policy amounts to meeting any health scare or accident more comfortably. Things changed when women started challenging men at the
workplace, often bagging better jobs, and with economic advancement, started demanding better insurance and health facilities. It would not be incorrect to say that for women at any life stage and of any demographic profile, life insurance is important to meet her financial protection and long-term wealth creation needs. It is never too early to invest in life insurance and hence the day you start earning, you should start investing in life insurance. At the same time it is never too late. If you have not started, the cost of getting financial protection and creating corpus to meet your financial needs would be higher, but it is never too late to start. The women of all age groups and of every profile should consider her needs, consider income and expenses and must allocate a certain portion of disposable income towards buying appropriate life insurance. The best option is to consult an expert financial advisor and take immediate action on the suggested financial plan to live a stress free life.
